Quoted By:
Hamlet by William Shakespeare follows Prince Hamlet of Denmark, who seeks revenge against his uncle Claudius for murdering his father, the king, and usurping the throne. After encountering his father’s ghost, Hamlet feigns madness, contemplates life and death (notably in the “To be or not to be” soliloquy), and orchestrates a play to confirm Claudius’s guilt. The ensuing tragedy involves betrayal, death, and madness, culminating in a deadly duel where most main characters, including Hamlet, perish.
For a modern man, Hamlet may convey the importance of resolving inner conflicts and taking decisive action rather than succumbing to indecision or overthinking. It also highlights the destructive impact of revenge and the need for moral clarity in navigating complex personal and societal challenges.
